Some online estimates say that about 30 million PowerPoint presentations are given every day. That number seems more than a bit high, and it’s hard to find a credible source for it. But let’s say it’s off by a factor of 80 percent, so that just one-fifth of that many presentations are given each day. Still, that would be 6 million PowerPoints.

by Ken Lopez Founder & CEO A2L Consulting Some people make a habit of denigrating Twitter, saying that its well-known 140-character limit makes it useless for anything substantive. There are several responses. First, it’s possible to link to anything on the Web within a tweet (just use one of the common URL-shortening utilities), so lots more information can be conveyed. Second, a lot of people read more on Twitter than they write. They use it as a sort of personal news feed, scrolling down for a few minutes at a time during the work day to see what’s new. If you pick the right accounts to follow, this works very well.

Very often, these groups are the first place that one can find new trends in the industry. The fact that a group does not cover your field of practice, incidentally, does not mean that there are not great discussions going on there.
by Ken Lopez Founder & CEO A2L Consulting These days, much of the best information available in any area of human endeavor is found on blogs. Litigation and trial topics are no exception. An excellent blog keeps readers up to date and interested in a subject far more effectively than a textbook or even a website. And most blogs are free of charge. Everyone should keep up with blogs in his or her own field. It’s a basic idea of staying abreast of what’s new in your profession. Here is a list of 14 blogs that will be of continuing interest to the trial lawyer, whether aspiring or accomplished. They deal with key issues of courtroom technology, trial tactics, evidence, and persuasion in a sprightly manner.
